The group was signed to Atlantic Records and released their first commercial project, “Watermelon, Chicken & Gritz,” in 2002.  “Watermelon, Chicken & Gritz” went multi-platinum. The album also earned the group two Grammy nominations:

He has also added actor to his lists of accomplishments landing a role in the movie “The Breakup Masters” and a lead role in the film “45 Seconds”.  In addition, Vito was featured in the made for BET movie “The Business of Christmas Part 2”, as well as the character Uncle Charles in the Geechee One Film “Black and Blue Tears”. 

Big V is also releasing a solo project as a joint venture with fellow Kentuckians, Kyng of Da Beatz Productionz.  The project will feature R&B crooners Urban Mystic and Dave Tolliver from the group Men at Large.  The project will also have contributions from Country rap veterans like Dusty Leigh, Colt Fords  and Slum American artist Big Henri.

[OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO] PJ Dakota "The Devil Is a Liar" | Instagram @PJDakota

 


          This week's Official Music Video Spotlight is dedicated to PJ Dakota's single and music video "The Devil Is a Liar" (written and produced by PJ Dakota herself).  During an interview on the prestigious Blogtalk Radio program "The Digital Meet and Greet" (which airs every Tuesday Night at 9:00 PM Eastern on http://www.BlogtalkRadio.com/PodcastsOnDemand), PJ stated that she had another artist in mind when she wrote and composed the song.  It was originally for a popular indie gospel female vocalist that decided to pass on the song in favor of another one produced by Ms. Dakota.  PJ, not wanting the track to go to waste made the decision to record and perform the song herself and the single became one of PJ's most popular recordings to be released in 2022! 
          Above is the official music video to accompany the single!  

          With all the madness and people dealing with mental health issues, PJ Dakota's "The Devil is a Liar" is a very uplifting song that's much needed at a time like this!

Award Winning Ghanaian Pop Singer TWICY will be a guest on MAKING CONNECTIONS TV on Saturday Nov. 19th Noon Eastern | www.Blacktopia.org

 


          Recently, Aly the host and program director of the illustrious Making Connections TV was a guest on the season premiere of The Digital Meet and Greet to promote her popular visual platform / interview show.  The Digital Meet and Greet has been one of Blogtlalk Radio's top performing programs / broadcasts since 2021 (during the program's 2nd season).  Aly helped kick off The Digital Meet and Greet's 3rd season with hosts James "JT" Thompson and Jonathan Coleman in a major way!  During the broadcast there were many callers wanting to know more about past and future guests of the Making Connections TV program, and of course Aly answered all of the callers' questions.  Following the Q & A session Jonathan ran down a list of several prestigious individuals that have had the honor of being guests on Aly's Making Connections program and one of the names Mr. Coleman listed was Ghanaian pop singer Twicy, in which Aly made the correction that Twicy has yet to be a guest on the program.  Jonathan immediately replied with "oh.. well we have to get him on your show then".  Soon after the broadcast, host and Media Blast PR specialist Jonathan Coleman reached out to Twicy's management (Dailey's Entertainment) to set up a meeting with Aly and now the Central Music Award winning Ghanaian pop star / songwriter Twicy will be a guest on the next episode of Making Connections TV set to air live Saturday Nov. 19th at Noon Eastern!

[BLACKTOPIA MUSIC] Former Sugar Hill Records artist CLAYTON SAVAGE returns with new single "Losses"! | 🎶Clayton Savage🎶

 

Blacktopia is proud to present the latest single from legendary songwriter / performer Clayton Savage titled "Losses"!  




ABOUT THE ARTIST

Clayton Savage is a rising artist whose upcoming single, ‘Losses’, is out on September 23rd and will be available to stream on all major streaming platforms! Having begun “singing shortly after he began speaking”, Clayton has honed his craft since he was a child to become the artist that he is today. Although he receives inspiration from a number of styles, Clayton Savage combines a variety of compositional elements to form his unique and authentic sound.

Clayton has developed a plethora of experience in the music industry; he worked as a studio secessionist and producer at the legendary Sugar Hills Records in Englewood, NJ, and was introduced to the lineup which included the

Grandmaster Mele Mel of the GM Flash Camp. Clayton cultivated his initial fanbase having toured Europe and abroad with the Furious Five. Desiring to pursue a solo career and release his own album, Clayton Savage went on to sign with Gerry Griffith to Capitol Manhattan Records.

After a “failed marketing attempt by Manhattan Records”, Clayton moved to Minnesota to perform with the area’s top band at the time, Westside. Five years later, he returned home to Virginia and began work in Northern VA as a Computer Programmer and Graphic Artist before he began creating original music once again under his own label Red K Records.

Clayton Savage currently has twelve releases in his Spotify discography. Some of his most popular tracks on the platform include the likes of ‘Laday, ‘Back in Dah Day, and ‘Girlfriend. With a growing number of followers and


listeners, there is no denying the fact that Clayton Savage has developed a dedicated following of loyal fans who will be eager to hear his upcoming single, ‘Losses’.





FEATURED RELEASE

Losses’ by Clayton Savage is now available on all major streaming platforms! The single lasts around three minutes and sits at 69 bpm. The track commences with a fourteen-second intro that builds a sense of anticipation for the verse.

Clayton Savage’s stylistic vocal color seamlessly synchronizes with the smooth vibe of the instrumentation. The subtle use of vocal effects adds depth to the vocal line without detracting from the lyrical prominence. The rhythmic percussion combines with the atmospheric instrumentation to provide the perfect platform for the vocal line.

The beat systematically drops out of the mix, check out the transition from 1:20 to 1:30, delivering just the right amount of dynamic diversity to ensure that this single is engaging from start to finish. By the time ‘Losses’ draws to a close, you’ll find yourself caught up in the hypnotic vibe, humming along with the catchy hook, and in need of hitting that repeat button for another listen.

From the impressive production and memorable instrumentation to the authentic vocal performance, fans of Clayton


Savage, as well as those who appreciate new music, will definitely want to hear this single. Make sure you follow Clayton Savage on social media to keep up to date with upcoming releases and performances!

Meet the owner

Shantel Archbold owner and CEO

As a single mother of 4 children, it was rare that I had the opportunity to splurge on going to spas and investing in skin care products to build and uplift myself. Often times I felt out of sorts and completely overwhelmed. 

Deciding to love on yourself should not come with making life altering decisions. Although I love main stream competitors, I couldn't afford their products on a regular basis. I also could not afford to go to massage therapists and pay outlandish prices for an hour of relief.


So I began making amazing products right in my kitchen! Truly quality products that allow my skin to feel luxurious and truly give me a reset and a recharge. 

I designed Marie's home as a homeopathic wellness shop where you can purchase quality products and Therapeutic massages for people of all skin types!
